WATCH THE VIDEO: APD COP SHOOTS PARTNER DURING DRUG BUST GONE BAD

It was an undercover operation to bust two men for selling $60 worth of methamphetamine, but things didn’t go as planned.

An Albuquerque police lieutenant shot a fellow officer who was working undercover in a McDonald’s parking lot near Central and Tramway just before noon Friday.

Albuquerque Police Chief Gorden Eden said Saturday the male officer remained in critical condition at University of New Mexico Hospital. He is in the intensive care unit and has undergone multiple surgeries.

According to the criminal complaint:

…undercover detectives Jacob Grant and Holly Garcia were trying to buy $60 worth of meth from Edmond Vester and Damien Bailey. The detectives picked up Vester and Bailey and headed over to a motel by Tramway Boulevard and Central Avenue to buy the drugs.

Garcia was driving, Bailey was seated in the front passenger side and Vester sat in the rear passenger seat.

The complaint stated that Vester went into the motel to get the drugs and then returned to the car. Once Garcia was given the drugs, she signaled for the other officers to come in and make the arrests.

Witnesses said they saw officers swarm the vehicle and then heard at least four gunshots. The undercover officer was rushed to the hospital.

Yesterday, the city settled with Grant, who was the detective shot – at least eight times – by Greg Brachle, his own lieutenant.

Today, the lapel camera video from the incident was released.
